And leave instant record transfer on the table in the time of an emergancy? I think all health records should be encrypted using pubkey crypto one key to patient and one to provider.
The last seven times I needed to transfer requested medical records involved phone calls, fax machines, CD-ROMs, physical stacks of paper, or some combination.
Fair point. I guess im coming from the perslective that these records are already in EPIC and other medical record systems, why do we allow this if were gonna get offline docs? And if theyre already loaded, why not have a system that allows that data to be useable to us in a digitally native format?
Why the need digitize it.
